## What if I forget my PIN?
Starting with Windows 10, version 1703, devices managed by [Microsoft Intune](https://www.microsoft.com/cloud-platform/microsoft-intune), are be able to reset a forgotten PIN without deleting company managed data or apps.
### Reset forgotten PIN on Windows Phone
To reset a forgotten pin on a Windows Phone, you will need to locate the device in the Intune portal. Once you've selected the device, click on **More > New passcode** to generate a new PIN.

Once you've done that, the device will receive a notification to unlock the device and you will have to provide them with the generated PIN in order to unlock the device. With the device unlocked, they user can now reset the PIN.

### Reset forgotten PIN on desktop
Users can reset a forgotten PIN from any Intune managed desktop device. They will need to unlock the device by other means (Password \ Smart Card \ Biometric).
Once the device is unlocked, go to **Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options** and under **PIN** select **I forgot my PIN**.

## Why do you need a PIN to use biometrics?
Windows Hello enables biometric sign-in for Windows 10: fingerprint, iris, or facial recognition. When you set up Windows Hello, you're asked to create a PIN first. This PIN enables you to sign in using the PIN when you cant use your preferred biometric because of an injury or because the sensor is unavailable or not working properly.
